Hi Steve,
When the JDE launches a debuggee process, it attempts to create a socket
between Emacs and the debugger to be used to send standard input to the
debuggee process and get standard and error output back from the debuggee
process. It uses the standard Emacs function, make-comint, to create the
socket connection. This function requires the name of the host to which to
make the connection. The JDE passes the value of
jde-bug-debugger-host-address to make-comint. The value of
jde-bug-debugger-host-address is the value of the standard Emacs variable,
system-name, by default. This appears to be HOME-PC on your home system. In
other words, Emacs believes the name of your home PC is HOME-PC.
Unfortunately, the networking software on your system does not appear to
recognize this name. I am not enough about your setup or Windows networking
to know why this is happening. The only thing I can suggest is that you try
setting jde-bug-debugger-host-address to the default absolute network
address for a local host:
127.0.0.1
